Dutch Oven Black Bean Chili

It’s finally beginning to feel like fall here in Los Angeles. The weather is beginning to cool down and we even had a bit of rain fall and I’ve been craving major comfort food. One of my favorite comfort foods during the fall season is chili. It’s so hearty & reminds me of football games when I was younger. And I wanted to show everyone that you don’t need a slow cooker to cook chili, you can use a old fashion dutch oven or even a large stock pot! Chili is also one of my favorite dishes to serve to a crowd since it’s easy to double the recipe and you can setup a self serve bar of toppings so guest can help themselves to a bowl made just how they like it. I also like to serve it with some freshly baked corn bread or tortilla chips. I made this batch of chili for Jonathan and I while we were at home one night enjoying a night in but I plan to make it again for a crowd… In the meantime, this chili is equally perfect for a game-day tailgate party, neighborhood open house, or family weekend dinner. I cant wait to share more recipes with you all. If you would like this chili recipe see below.
